    Hey, guys, Jerry here. Today is our first day in the studio, and we will be getting tones, and making sure everything is sounding great before we start rockin. We are super-stoked about the songs we have, and want to capture the feel, the emotion, and the intensity in every one. This process is gonna be a little different, since we will have those shows in the middle of it, but I think it...

    What up! I am in L.A. again, this time working on lyrics with Jacoby, in more of a sounding board capacity. We are being extremely picky, as always, but we have set the bar too high to settle. There are some rockin songs, some funky songs, some mellow songs, and some punky songs. We can never stick to one style, but somehow, that works for us. I can't wait for you guys to hear it, but you...

    What's up, y'all! Here we are, at the Paramour again. This place is still amazing, and inspiring. We have music for 5 songs done already, and we have only been here a week! BTW, don't ask me any questions here, because we will pick the questions from the RIOT campaign to answer every week. So, I am sure there are tons of things you want to know, but I can only give you insight to a few...

    Hey, everyone.  I have been talking with my brother and my dad about getting our Coat of Arms tattooed for a while, and we finally did it. It took us a while to figure out which was the correct one, and we added a little something extra to each one to make it personal to us.  We actually were able to get them all done at the same time, at the  same shop.  We are in the...

    We had the most fun we have had in a long time last night.  The house was packed, we were locked in together, and the crowd was great.  Harpo's is a strange venue, but works, nonetheless.  For those of you who don't know, the stage there is 7' high, and there is no barricade, so the people right in front can't see everyone all of the time.  Regardless, the...

    Hey, everyone. We are on the road again, and out with Hinder again. It sucks that the Buckcherry guys aren't with us anymore, but the Hinder guys are cool, and still as crazy as ever. The shows on this run have been good so far, and we had some good fun on Halloween. We made a last minute trip to the store, and couldn't find any costumes, so we loaded up on face paint. Dave was the only...

    Hey, Everyone. I'm sorry I haven't been around lately. I really was waiting for a way to respond to your questions without having to send each of you a message. I know, it is a little bit lazy, but really, I want everyone to be able to see the answer, and not just the person who asked the question. So, for those questions that haven't gotten any attention, make yourself known,...

    I want to hear from you guys. I only want you to give me one song. This doesn't mean that we are going to play that song live, it's just that I'm curious.   OK, I was going to try and change the rules using a comment instead of editing the blog, but that isn't possible.  I know some of you are irritated at my strict rules, so I would like to know your favorite...

    I think this is where I start to show my age.  I still listen to full records.  I think a lot of people nowadays only pick a couple of songs, and then wonder about the rest.  I'm not talking shit, I just think that you should consider the song only a small piece of the puzzle that is the record.  Songs have meaning, but so do records. Records also take you on a...
